This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
See this GitHub page for a collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics.
This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.
We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

Frome is generally a really good marxist writer (they are very much anti-western-marxist, very much a materialist and has an excellent article in defense of "tankies") though sometimes their writing can be a bit dense for me as I do not have a background in philosophy. I have not read this article before and after the first read I definitely need to re-read this given the author's generally excellent insights elsewhere. They usually deepen my dialectical materialist understanding further.
For example I really like:

Though this is not by Frome I can potentially see parallels in terms of learning - this article helped me better understand "identity politics" and to use it better:
https://redsails.org/on-identitarianism-a-defense-of-a-strawman/
The parallel here would be to develop our understanding of how we consider moralism (amongst other things) as marxists. I do need to re-read the article more deeply though.
